The emperor plays a rogue: a cute little gambling concubine

Chapter 142 Empress Candidates

Back along the road, Lian Zichen sent Sun Xiaoxi back to the palace.

"Do you still want to go out tomorrow?" He reached out to fiddle with the broken hair by her ear without any scruples, and asked in a gentle voice.

Sun Xiaoxi thought for a while, and finally shook her head, "I'm Lian Jing's concubine, and she often runs out of the palace, which doesn't seem very good."

Lian Zichen withdrew her hand and smiled coldly, "It doesn't matter, I have said it, I just hope you are happy, as long as you laugh, I can take you out of the palace at any time."

"Zichen, I know you treat me well, but I am Lian Jing's concubine, you are with me without any scruples..." After a pause, she hesitated, "I will implicate you."

"Do you think I'm afraid of this?" Lian Zichen snorted, still showing no scruples.

He clasped her wrist with his big hand, and he forced her to the wall to trap her, "Sun Xiaoxi, listen carefully, what this king said to you in Zixing Village is not nonsense, nor is it a joke, I really like you, And I will definitely not hurt you like Lian Jing, as long as you choose me, you can get the freedom you want, and I guarantee that you will be happy and free all your life."

Sun Xiaoxi frowned at him, looking extremely at a loss, and pulled out her hand vigorously. She turned her face away and used silence to refuse to resist his kindness to her.

Seeing her stubborn expression, Lian Zichen was not in a hurry, let go of her wrist, and before anyone came over, he jumped over the wall and left the palace.

"Remember what I said, you can reply to me at any time."

Lian Zichen's voice was still echoing in her ears, Sun Xiaoxi was walking back to Xiaoxuan Hall in a dazed manner with her guitar in her arms, when she bumped into a wall of flesh with a bang.

The person above his head was panting heavily. Seeing that she was still in the palace, he quickly put his hand on her shoulder and asked nervously, "Xi'er, where did you go this morning? I haven't been able to find you all this time." !"

He took her into his arms, hugged her tightly, with lingering fear in his heart, "I'm scared to death." He thought she ran out of the palace again, but the guards at the gate of the palace said they didn't see Concubine Xiao.

Sun Xiaoxi felt a little uncomfortable, and put a guitar between the two of them, keeping a distance from him.

"Is the emperor looking for a concubine for something?" Sun Xiaoxi's tone was a bit cold, and there was even a deep alienation in the indifference.

Lian Jing frowned, "Xi'er..."

"If there is nothing else, the concubine will go back to the palace to rest first." As she spoke, she bypassed him and walked forward.

How could Lian Jing let her go, he stretched out his hand to grab her arm and pulled her back, "Xi'er!" He looked down at her face, his handsome face was full of injuries because of her indifference.

"Isn't the emperor going to accompany the noble concubine Qin? What do you want to do with the concubine now?" My heart was sour, and the words that came out of my mouth were obviously not pleasing to the ears.

"I've already explained it to you."

"Your Majesty, you don't need to explain, because my concubines don't know how to trust you, Your Majesty." The more Lian Jing listened, the harsher he heard the words from my concubine and the emperor.

"Xi'er..." Lian Jing stared at her little face for a long time with helplessness, sighed, and said solemnly: "It doesn't matter if you don't believe me now, time will prove my feelings for you, as long as You stay here, stay by my side, and I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer later, okay?"

Seeing his serious and almost scared expression, Sun Xiaoxi softened her heart, bit her lower lip, and neither refused nor agreed to him.

"Let's talk!" After saying this, she pushed him away and ran towards Xiaoxuan Hall.

Two days later, Lian Jing issued an imperial decree that broke Sun Xiaoxi's heart.

In accordance with the fate of the heavens, the emperor ordered that Concubine Su, who has both ability and political integrity, is indeed the choice of the mother, so the ceremony will be prepared from now on, and she will be canonized as the empress.

This incident was spread inside and outside the palace, and before Sun Xiaoxi knew about it, the Queen Mother was already angry.

"Jing'er! What's going on with you? How could you canonize Concubine Su as empress?! What about Xiaoxi? Xiaoxi, what are you going to do?"

"Queen Mother, Xiaoxi is still my imperial concubine, and this will not change no matter what." Lian Jing's expression was indifferent, almost cold, as if he didn't want to say anything more about this matter.

"It's simply ridiculous!" The queen mother slapped her big hand, and even the mahogany table shook with a slap.

"Why should the empress be angry? Didn't you always complain that the harem lacked a queen? Didn't I make it up for you now? No matter who it is, as long as it can be in charge of the harem." After the words fell, Lian Jing stood up from the chair rise.

"Stop!" The queen mother called out to Lian Jing who was about to turn around and leave, "Didn't you say that the position of queen can only be given to the woman you love in your heart? Don't tell the queen mother that the person you love is Su Qinxiu, not Xiao Xi."

"The queen mother and the children have grown up. Let the queen mother hear the nonsense before. Moreover, compared to Xiaoxi, I think Su Qinxiu is more suitable to be a queen."

"Really?" A soft voice came from the door.

Lian Jing looked back at the door, only to see Sun Xiaoxi standing there expressionless.

"Xi'er..."

The queen mother looked at the two people who had misunderstood a lot, and sighed, "The Ai family doesn't care about your affairs, and can't care about them, you all go out."

Sun Xiaoxi also felt that she couldn't even stay for a quarter of an hour in a place with Lianjing!
Turning her small body without hesitation, she turned and ran out of Xiangning Hall.

Looking at her lonely back, Lian Jing's chest froze. Originally, he didn't want to explain too much, but he chased her out uncontrollably.

"Xi'er!" He called to her while running.

Sun Xiaoxi didn't look back, she cried silently while crying, "Leave me alone!"

Lian Jing has long legs, and after a while, he stretched out his long arms and caught her, "How could I ignore you?"

Seeing the tears on her face, my heart twitched heavily. Damn it, she still cried, and she cried so sadly.

"Have you been lying to me before?" It's a lie to say that you love her, it's a lie to say that you want her to be his unique queen, it's a lie to even treat her well.

"I……"

"Where can I not be as good as Su Qinxiu? Why can't I be your queen?!" She grabbed his dragon robe vigorously, originally not wanting him to see her jealous look, but she did No, because she is really jealous, very jealous of Su Qinxiu.

"Xi'er, you don't want to be like this..." Lian Jing supported her slowly sliding body, wanted to hug her, but she ruthlessly avoided her.

Seeing her like this, Lian Jing's heart felt uncomfortable and tangled, she was sobbing and crying, he didn't know what to say to her, after a long time, he could only sigh, and asked: "Didn't you say that you don't want to be my queen? Didn't you say that you don't care about those false names at all?"

Sun Xiaoxi found it ridiculous, "So what? Are you going to give Su Qinxiu everything I don't want?"

Couldn't he see how happy she was to be his unique queen when she said don't just talk, but... He doesn't know, he doesn't know anything!
"I didn't mean that." Although she had expected that she would be sad and cry, her sadness was obviously beyond his expectation.

Sun Xiaoxi closed her eyes, looking so desperate.

"Xi'er, don't cry, even if you're not the queen, my feelings for you..."

"Stop talking nonsense to coax me!" Sun Xiaoxi interrupted him sharply.

"Lian Jing, do you know? I was afraid of being with you at first, because I was very afraid of the embarrassing appearance of myself because of jealousy. I used to despise that kind of woman the most, but now I am because of you, I became such a person." Sun Xiaoxi shook her head while backing away, "I can't do it anymore, I'm very scared..."

With a suffocation in his chest, Lian Jing only felt that his breathing stopped suddenly.

"What do you mean by that?" His face was ashen, and he took a step towards her, and she took a step back.

"I don't know." She only knew that she was working very hard now and wanted to escape from things that would scar her all over.

"You want to leave me?" Lian Jing's face turned from blue to black, and his footsteps quickened, he forced her into a gazebo. "Sun Xiaoxi, you said you wouldn't leave me?!"
